REPORT TO THE PRESI DENT 

The PRESIDENT 

The White House. 

Srn: On August 19, 1933, you approved a Code of Fair Competi- tion for the Lumber and Timber Products Industries. 

This is a report on Lumber Code Authority's Amendment No. 91, 

which has been published with a Notice of Opportunity to be Heard 

and sent to all interested parties. The Amendment contemplates the addition of the Territory of 

laska to the jurisdiction of the Red Cedar Shingle Division. 

One of the largest manufacturers of shingles in Alaska has volun- tarily submitted itself to the Code and is at present operating under 

full Code compliance including an allocation :from the Red Cedar 

hingle Division Agency. It is felt that other Alaskan manufacturers should be brought under the Code in fairness to the indusfr> 

and especially in view of the fact that the Canadian shingle manu- facturers throu~h a voluntar)~ agreement are cooperating with the 

industry througn an export quota and are also voluntarily complying 

with the trade practice regulations which were recently approved 

for the Red Cedar Shingle Division. 

The Deputy Administrator in his final report to us on said Amendment to said Code haV"ing found as herein set forth and on the basis 

f all the proceedings in this matter : 

We find: 

a) The Amendment to said Code and the Code as amended are 

"\\ell designed to promote the policies and purposes of Title I o:f the 

ational Industrial Recovery Act including the removal of obstruc- tions to the free flow of interstate and foreign commerce which tend 

to diminish the amount thereof, and will provide for the general 

welfare by promoting the orgarnzation of industry for the purpose 

of cooperative action among trade groups, by includino- and maintaining united action of labor and management under adequate gov- ernn1ental sanction and supervision, by elin1inating unfair competi- tive practices, by promoting the fullest possible utilization of the 

present proclucti,e capacity of industries, by avoiding undue rest. riction of production ( except as may be temporarily requ.iTed), by 

increasing the consumption o:f industrial and agricultural products 

through increasing purchasing po"er~ by reducing and relieving 

unemploynwnt, by improving standards of labor, and by otherwise 

rehabilitating industry. 

(b) The Code as amended complies in all respects with the perti- nent pronsions of said Title of said Act, including without limita- tion subsection (a) of Section 3, Subsection (a) of Section 7 and 

Subsection (b) of Section 10 thereof. 

( c) The Code empo"\\ers the Code Authority to present the aforesaid Amendment on behalf o:f the industry as a "hole. 

(2)

(d) The Amendm nt and the Code a. amended are not de ianed to 

and will not permit monopoli or monopolistic practices. 

(e) The Amendment and the Code as amended are not designed 

to and will not eliminate or oppre s mall enterprises an l will not 

op rate to di criminate against them. 

(f) Tho e engaged in other teps of the economic proce s have 

not been deprived of the right to be heard prior to approval of said 

Amendment. 

For these rea ons, therefore, we have approved this Amendment 

to this Code. 

For the ational Indu trial Recovery Board:
